I forgot to blog last month! Dang you February, always throwing me off with your shortness. What gives? Anyhow, here I am a few days late with not much new to report. I’ve been working and driving on these crazy winter roads dreaming of my move across the country that will hopefully occur in a few short months!

Here is at least one decent shot I took recently… I NEED a new camera… but that will have to wait until after the move I think…

If you wondered what keeps me away from my beloved blog for months at a time as of late… I’m in aerial film scanning and mapping. I enjoy the challenges of my job but want a change. I’ve been thinking of moving for some time and soon it will become a reality! I’ve ventured out of Iowa on trips but never lived abroad or even in another state like I desperately wanted as a teenager.

I’m trying to pin down what to do and where to do it but rest assured, it will be fantastic! Once there I won’t be able to stop the inspiration from flooding into my blog (hopefully!)

I will be moving with my boyfriend in March just before my birthday, the last year of my twenties… Let’s see what I’ll make of it!

We had such a lovely trip spending time with family, experiencing city life and taking a break at our favorite camping spot deep in the forests of Colorado. Look for a second post about the Denver Botanical Gardens very soon!

My love is gone for a few days to visit family in a beautiful part of the country. Though I get to go with him at the end of the summer with my work schedule it wasn’t possible to go this time. I’m sad I won’t be seeing any mountains any time soon but I’m keeping busy picking up my house and garden.

I have many things planted and I’m sure there will be even more done by the time he gets back!

I hope to have lots of beautiful produce and plants to sell in my local Farmer’s Market. So far, I haven’t made much but considering I’ve only sold catnip that grows behind my house and cilantro that popped up all by itself I’m off to a good start.

Here are some snaps of the garden to get us all through until my love (who has my camera) comes home:

Much love to you all! I hope you are not as lonely as I will be this week but you know what they say about distance and the heart. So far it seems to be true and it has honestly only been a few hours… Kind of sad on my part I suppose! If you do happen to get lonely why not strike up some conversation in my comments section or maybe even catch up with some loose ends of your own?

I cannot flipping believe I’ve neglected my lovely blog for almost a month! The garden is coming in nicely. Some plants I grew from seed but after a few mishaps I had to look around my local garden centers, too. I will snap photos very soon but until then check out the awesome blossoming trees I’ve seen!
